ORER data and numbers

ORER Notes

Discussion, General Notes

• At the current time, about all I have is the car book listings. Note there was no lease term, or end noted, so I assume the lease ended after 3/1960, but have no evidence to support that.
• Per Tim Gilbert, these were ex-B&M 5500-5519 cars, sold to Revere Sugar in 1958 (see that car series for more info)
• Per an article in The Society for Industrial Archeology, New England Chapter (vol 15, #1, 1995) this refinery closed in 1986, so that would be an "absolute" end date for any RSRX cars (I don't have ORERs to know when they actually ceased to be listed)
